Grant31781 20 Posted February 7 My bike has been under a cover under my tractor shed for 2 weeks. The weather was nice today so I uncovered it to find sand all over the seat and tank. Then I noticed a chunk of the rear seat strap had been chewed off. Squirrels or rats have to be the pest. I have been storing it this way for 5 months with no problems till now.  Not happy!! But nothing I can do. Now I have the bike by the house out in the open under the cover. The cat also stays around this area. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DewMan 905 Posted February 8 Sounds like a perfect excuse to upgrade that vinyl covered plank they call a seat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JBrock 19 Posted February 8 Maybe have it recovered in squirrel fur as a warning. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant31781 20 Posted February 8 It's the back seat. Lol. I am thinking of making an electrical grid around the bike powered by a continuous current fence charger. That should keep them away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bornagainbiker 781 Posted February 8 Knock on wood, I've had no rodent problems with my bike, but my car is another story. For some reason, mice thought that the air filter of my car was a great place to stash seeds. I had to replace several air filters, well before their time, because of the furry little devils.
